Collections

Time for another collections post.
First I am going to show you the culprit that created this collection

This is a thimble of sorts that belonged to my Mother. I thought it was cute and didn't want to part with it but where to put it.........

Some of these I bought just because they were different and others I bought from places we visited.

We had a competition here in Virginia City, Nev.

The Lords prayer wraps around this one and it is pewter.

Did I ever tell you that I like old cars?

No I don't have one of these tucked away in the garage LOL



but I do have little ones in lots of places like this one

that sits on the glass shelf in the half bath and across the way are these

This one sits on top of the freezer...oppps should have dusted before picture:)

and then there is this

The brown part is leather and the car is metal. Hangs in our entry way from the garage......
I am not sure you can call my things collections because they are small in number but they are still a group of things soooooo
 lets see...I have guns, dolls, clocks and cars. What do you suppose might be next?
